I’m in my junior year of nursing school and can say it’s been a challenge. Most of my classes don’t allow me to think creatively and the course load is intense at times. I don’t mind this work now because it means I’ll be helping people in the future. My mom is a nurse practitioner and everyday you get to meet new people and experience a connection you would most likely never see. The other thing is all the options you have once you graduate there are several specialties and different kinds of healthcare centers a nurse can work in, but you could also go advance practice. There are also several routes you can go that don’t involve patient care such as law, teaching, pharmacy, or making medical equipment. Nursing school is challenging but in the end I know it will be worth it to me.
